Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 256

The previous welcome banquet had been an intimate affair, Limited to those closest to the Johns family, leaving many unaware of Madisyn’s return.

Today, they naturally assumed the celebration was just another tribute to Kristine’s endless string of accomplishments.

“Kristine, you’re amazing! So young, and already winning awards left and right!” one guest exclaimed with admiration.

“Definitely, Kristine’s been outstanding since she was little.

She’s a real role model for us younger ones,” another added.

Amid the flood of compliments, Kristine’s smile faltered slightly, a hint of discomfort showing.

“Actually, you might be mistaken.

” she began, hesitating as she tried to set the record straight.

“It wasn’t Kristine who won an award this time-it was our newly found sister, Madisyn,” Dane announced as he entered the living room.

Surprised, everyone turned to look at Madisyn.

Some guests recognized her immediately, their faces lighting up with delight.

“Your newly found sister is Madi!”

“Wow, that’s incredible! Your family truly have exceptional genes.

”

“Wait, so Madisyn is actually a member of this Johns family?”

The revelation sent waves of surprise through the group.

Everyone soon crowded around Madisyn, who greeted them with a gracious smile, effortlessly slipping into conversation.

Chatting with the throng of people proved challenging, but by midday, Madisyn had managed to make her way to where Susan stood.

Susan gave her a warm, understanding smile.

“It looks like it’s been quite the exhausting day for you.

”

Madisyn returned the smile, a touch of weariness in her voice.

“It’s been a bit overwhelming, but I’m starting to adapt.

It’s part of the life in a prominent family, I suppose.

”

Shortly thereafter, Andrew and Waylon joined them, taking seats next to Madisyn, eager to catch up.

“Waylon?” Madisyn’s expression transformed into one of delighted surprise as she spotted Waylon.

She hadn’t expected him to make it, knowing his tight schedule with the latest film project.

“I just got back, Madisyn.

And you’re doing wonderfully,” Waylon greeted her, his smile bright and energizing.

He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a whisper.

“I’m aware of Kristine’s actions.

It’s shocking how far she went, but you don’t need to worry.

Dad and Mom have lost trust in her.

If she steps out of line again, she won’t be able to stay with us.

”

Waylon’s allegiance to Madisyn was unwavering.

“I understand,” Madisyn responded with a smile.

“But Kristine’s parents saved Dad’s life.

We can’t simply dismiss her over this.

” Waylon exhaled deeply, his brow furrowed in a mix of frustration and sympathy.

Deep down, he did feel a pang of sadness for Kristine.

But she shouldn’t have caused his sister any harm.

He was resolute, determined never to let anyone harm Madisyn.

It seemed they were never a true family.

It was just that Kristine was so good at acting, deceiving everyone with her convincing facade.
